"you are not a citizen, but you still might help the election." are you talking about non- citizens casting votes? guest: election fraud is a non- issue. this is not something that is relevant. all of the stat's going after election fraud in many ways, they're doing that to suppress the vote of certain people they do not one voting. one big irony is florida, going through a statewide persia, -- purge, they're benefiting from having non-citizens in their state. it's ironic that they are benefiting from them when they're trying to encourage -- remove the
